Hi,

Is it possible to convert 5 image files (JPG) into a new PDF file (only one PDF)?
Thanks for help and a few lines of code

Hi Luet,

i think you don't know that there are online resources with kb-articles, online reference and so on.

Simply go on the official support pages to check this out.

The developer guide you've got with installation, too.

QP offers functionalities to render each iamge into a pdf-page and putting these pdf-pages into one new pdf.

Cheers,
Ingo

This is known to me.
But I would like to bring 5 pictures into a single PDF.
There is no article, example or hint.
Nowhere...

thanks Ingo

Thanks Ingo, that you are there for this forum.
That's great.
But there are just too few examples in the Developer Guide, kb-articles and in the online reference.
This is a real shortcoming, so I ask here in the forum.

But I have now developed a solution and everything is going well now.
thank you Smile

Hi Luet,

it's often like this.

People asking for help...

and if they are ready there isn't the time to post a sample into the samples section.

That's why there are less samples :(

I think you don't know how to search?

Take an empty pdf or create an initial one with an empty page and then use this sample:

http://www.debenu.com/kb/add-images-pdf-programmatically/

It won't feed your needs in detail but you can modificate it.

Here's an easy sample dealing with one image but you can put the code into a loop gathering more images:

http://www.debenu.com/kb/convert-an-image-to-a-pdf-programmatically/

Here's an aditional thread giving you an idea what's possible with QuickPDF:

http://www.quickpdf.org/forum/add-300dpi-image-to-pdf_topic2564.html

I've searched for these three ressources from here:

http://www.debenu.com/docs/pdf_library_reference/Search.php

...with the search string "image to pdf".

Hello,
But I know how I must look.
But you did not quite understand me.
The question was not how do I get from one picture to one PDF file.
But how do I get more than one picture (5 pictures) in a PDF file!
And there is still no example of this.
By trying, I managed to find the solution, which was very easy afterwards.
Here is my code:

For n = 1 to Filecount

         exten = LCase(Mid(Datei (n), InStrRev(Datei(n), ".")))
        If (GetAttrW(path& Datei(n)) And vbDirectory) = vbDirectory Then

         ElseIf InStr(".jpg.jpeg.jpe.jfif.gif.tif.tiff.png.wmf.bmp.emf", exten) > 0 Then
          Nummer = Nummer + 1

            If Nummer = 1 Then
            DocID1 = QPdf.NewDocument()
             End If

            QPdf.AddImageFromFile path & Datei(n), 0
            lWidth = QPdf.ImageWidth() * size
            lHeight = QPdf.ImageHeight() * size
            QPdf.SetPageDimensions lWidth, lHeight
            QPdf.DrawImage 0, lHeight, lWidth, lHeight '// Store the updated PDF where you like

            QPdf.NewPage
        End If
    Next
    QPdf.DeletePages QPdf.PageCount, 1

              lRet = QPdf.SaveToFile(NewFilename)

I did understand you ...

I've written "...Here's an easy sample dealing with one image but you can put the code into a loop gathering more images:...".

And i see that you've done it with success ;-)

At a second step you can check if tiff-files have more than one image inside and render each of it on a separate pdf-page...
